Speculation: 4th.OA

[Dead Thing]

For the sake of this discussion, the premise of this post is that the Wings' 2020 1st. rd. pick(4thOA) is up for grabs.
Would like to hear from other team's fans as to what they would seriously offer and to hear from Wings' fans has to what they would like to see in return.

Without being rude, not looking to hear from fans saying we won't be moving the pick.

Thanks for the feedback.

Obviously they're rebuilding, but what's their biggest need at the moment?

I think ANA or NJ would want to trade up past OTTs 5th pick to draft Drysdale.
NJ would have Smith, Bahl on LD and Drysdale on RD.

ANA needs RD as well. Not sure of their cupboards on D.

Could see both offering a decent prospect (their #4th/5th ranked guy) + 3rd to do it.

DET could still get a decent forward at 6th or 7th? Perfetti or Rossi? Or select Guhle higher than most?

You run the risk of OTT drafting Drysdale at 3rd though, not sure what fans think of that?

As for if you're trading 4th for an established NHL player,

 

[Double Dion]

I'd offer one of Monahan or Gaudreau from the Flames.

 

[Ghost of Ethan Hunt]

Cirelli + Sergachev + Cap Dump for 4OA+?

 

[SingnBluesOnBroadway]

Obviously they're rebuilding, but what's their biggest need at the moment?

Yes.

 

[Amadeus]

I'd offer William Nylander and 15th for 4th overall.

Reluctantly, but it could give us a great young player the add to our core and the added cap space can help add more depth to the lineup.

More ping pong balls.

Wow, how can DET refuse a 3rd + "4th/5th ranked prospect"? Get the paperwork over asap.

A team in a full rebuild won’t move it for guys making 6 million per year unless they’re superstars signed for another 6-8 years.

They’ll still want a top 10 pick plus a solid prospect. Maybe Toronto would want Drysdale and move the 10th pick plus Robertson for him. Their defence has always been a mess and that could set it up with Rielly, Sandin and Drysdale long term.

But I just don’t see Toronto wanting to move Robertson. But that’s what Detroit would be looking for if they were to move the 4th.

Interesting offer.

Well what are you expecting? Another 1st to drop one or two spots?
If you can still get one of your top 3 targets and add a 2020 pick + prospect then why not? Go for a 2nd then.
Top 5 picks are rarely moved anyhow.

 

[BLNY]

Cirelli + Sergachev + Cap Dump for 4OA+?

Probably as compelling a deal as they'd get if it were actually up for grabs, but both Cirelli and Serg - while very good young players - are RFAs. I think the Wings would wanted more years of control and cost certainty.

 

[Amadeus]

Interesting offer.

Yeah, I'm taking Drysdale.

You name it, We need it. We need help everywhere.

 

[BergevinBurner]

More ping pong balls.

Detroit's 1st for Mtl's 1st, 3 2nds, 3rd and 3 4ths?

 

[Hitemwith4]

I'd offer William Nylander and 15th for 4th overall.

Reluctantly, but it could give us a great young player the add to our core and the added cap space can help add more depth to the lineup.

This is a solid offer imo and as a leaf fan im 50/50 on it

 

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

Would rather see Detroit trade up for the first overall pick and take cap dump from the Rangers, such as Marc Staal, but doubt that'll happen.

 

[Voodoo Glow Skulls]

I don't hate it.

Can Nylander play center?

 

[Gravity]

This is not speculation.......

 

[Rare Jewel]

I don't hate it.

Can Nylander play center?

He could, but he's likely better suited to the wing.

 

[domiwroze]

Primeau , Mete and MTL's 1st pick

 

[Amadeus]

I don't hate it.

Can Nylander play center?

He was drafted as one, but has been used predominantly on the wings.

He's pretty solid on faceoffs though. I'd hate to lose him to be honest but the ability to draft Drysdale is pretty attractive and it may make sense for Detroit only because they've got depth at RHD with Hronek and recently drafted Seider (who is a star in the making IMO).

Nylander, Larkin, Mantha, Bertuzzi and Fabbri is a good start in building that forward core.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Primeau , Mete and MTL's 1st pick

Sorry but Primeau and Mete don't move you up 12 spots from #16 to #4, Detroit would easily decline that offer.

 

[GoldiFox]

Jake Bean + #13 + #43 for #4
